Brooks Range Dall Sheep Hunt's
I OPERATE TWO TROPHY DALL SHEEP CAMPS in the central Brooks Range . The first, which we have been hunting in for over 16 years, is located 100 miles north of the Arctic Circle . This remote, extensive tent camp, with a spacious dining tent and comfortable sleeping tents, is situated on a high, pristine mountain lake. With the majestic Brooks Range before you, this is an incredibly challenging and rewarding hunt. Receiving significantly less hunting pressure than the Alaska Range, Chugach, Talkeetna or Wrangell Mountains, the Brooks Range offers tremendous opportunities for Trophy Dall sheep. The chances of encountering other hunting parties are extremely low, unlike many other areas within the state.
The elusive Dall Sheep is considered by many to be one of the ultimate big game trophies in North America . You'll typically hunt out of base camp for four or five days then, if necessary, backpack to spike camps that are approximately a six hour hike from the base camp, though much of the time this is not necessary. Fortunately, by landing on this high mountain lake, which is where base camp is located, you are already in the sheep country and trophy rams are often spotted from camp and many fine trophies have been harvested within one and a half miles of Base Camp. As this tends to be a very physical hunt, you should be prepared to hike approximately 2,000 feet in vertical elevation a day while covering four to six miles on foot.
We generally see over 150 rams during the month of August and you can expect to stalk rams that are between 36" and 40" and we have generally been nearly 100% successful in harvesting trophy rams and providing hunters with the opportunities at trophy rams!
